With Kasey Lansdale, the storytelling delightfully takes on a lighter, sharper edge.
Kasey Lansdale’s The Disappeared is an effectively atmospheric study in suspense.
“Kasey Lansdale’s voice and prose are on point... [Her] future
is bright in the horror genre.”
"Vibrant, full-of-life characters and a mystery full of dark surprises kept me invested until the very end. I want more! Kasey Lansdale has my attention."
"Much will be made in the coming months and years of Kasey Lansdale's ability to channel the voice of her father, Champion Mojo Storyteller Joe R. Lansdale. What's much more important is all the ways that Kasey is her own writer, and that her creation, Chance Kirby, is her own woman. Chance delivers mojo without the macho, more Kinsey Millhone than Hap Collins. Her compassion and vulnerability keep the reader hooked as the twisty plot unfolds. A full cast of eccentrics makes Hopeful, Texas, a destination I can't wait to get back to."
"An absolute winner! It's rare that a thriller offers up a tale with such a page-turning, edge-of-the-seat plot that also grips your heart so tightly, but First Chance does just that, and then some! There're thrills, laughs, and even a few tears. (And who doesn't just love a German shepherd named Sissy?) Bravo!"
"First Chance is a remarkable slice of Texas noir. As comfortable as your favorite pair of jeans, as quirky as a box of spiders, and as deadly as a shotgun filled with nails. Kasey Lansdale clearly loves her characters. I enjoyed the hell out of it."
